Pros

Company car, and a company credit card for hotels.

Cons

I was told during my interview that I would make my own schedule and get better as time goes on at a manageable pace, and that I was expected to work 9-5, Monday to Friday. I currently work 16 hour days 6-7 days a week. I'm constantly told I'm not doing enough by him daily through phone calls, text messages and emails. Customers get upset when I tell them I'm heading down to them to service them, when my boss makes me go in the opposite direction for no reason. I passed out last week in the bathroom after work and woke up with my head bruised. Work-life balance: 0/5 Benefits: 4/5 Management: 0/5 Training: 0/5 Communication: 1/5

Pros

The actual coworkers and team members are great. Everyone is super supportive and just trying to help each other out.

Cons

Management: There’s a huge disconnect between upper leadership and the people doing the day-to-day work. Goals and priorities change constantly with very little communication, and it often feels like micromanagement takes the place of actual guidance. Work-Life Balance: The workload is completely unsustainable. You’re expected to handle an overwhelming amount of work, but you aren't given the resources or staffing to actually get it done without burning out. Expecting people to constantly work over their hours has become the norm. Lack of Growth: Career progression is pretty much non-existent. Promises of promotions or career development are thrown around, but they rarely actually happen. There’s no clear pathway to move up, so it’s easy to feel stuck and stagnant.
